HTC barks about new “dog translator” app


Have a dog and ever uttered the words, “what are you barking at?” HTC may be coming to your rescue. Yesterday HTC posted a photo on their Facebook page showing a “dog translator” app that will let you figure out just what your dog is trying to tell you.

OK, maybe not really.  Despite reports floating around the Internet about this development, TalkAndroid did not fall for it.  It appears enough people were taken by the idea that HTC took action to officially state that no such dog translator was in the works. The photo that was posted was some creative work from HTC as they mused about the possibility of “voice” recognition software that could be applied to our canine friends.
Perhaps their developers have been working too hard in response to the voice recognition wave sweeping the smartphone market?  Or possibly HTC just wanted to have a little lighthearted humor to offset the news about HTC pulling out of Brazil?
Whatever the reason, it’s refreshing to see a company have some fun on a day other than April Fools’ Day.
